Mission and Strategic Plan

As a key member of the Oregon State University community, the College of Business is wholly committed to furthering the core values spelled out in the OSU Strategic Plan.

Putting our commitment into action, we’re guided by our strategic initiatives of student success and achieving distinction. You can read more about the College of Business strategic initiatives in this document and in this presentation.

Our mission is to recruit, retain and educate students to be the kind of people we’d all like to work for: people who work hard, earn success and lead by example as socially responsible, global-minded, innovative business people.

Business leaders around the world consistently cite innovation as the single most important leadership skill, and innovation is something that can be taught. We provide our students with the education they need to methodically and creatively address problems and pursue opportunities from all angles.
